Diversity & Inclusion

MISSION

Our commitment to equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI):

The Department of Statistics and the Committee on Computational and Applied Mathematics are committed to providing a welcoming, inclusive, and supportive environment for all members. Our community values and welcomes diverse backgrounds and experiences, and believes that our work is greatly strengthened by collaboration among people from all backgrounds and all parts of the world.

To reach these goals, the Department of Statistics and the Committee on Computational and Applied Mathematics are actively working to cultivate an inclusive climate so that all members of our community can thrive both personally and professionally; to recruit and support students, postdoctoral researchers, staff, and professors from historically underrepresented groups; and to bring awareness of EDI issues to our community. The joint Committee on Community, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (CCEDI) supports, plans, and implements initiatives to increase the equity, diversity, inclusivity, and connectivity within our community.
